The SINEX files, which are stored in the SINEX pool of the IERS SINEX Combination Campaign project, contain normal equation systems and/or solutions of individual space techniques. When the solution is given we try to reconstruct the normal equation system by using the constraints with which the solution was obtained. Before the combination the number and type of rank defect of each normal equation matrix should be determined in order to get an insight of the constraint characteristics. Theoretical considerations and first numerical results for this rank defect analysis are presented here. One of the problems in the inter-technique combination is the correct weighting of the input normal equation systems. The variance component estimation may be considered as a potential weighting method. First experiences with this method are reported here.
